[Job] LiveU is recruiting

[Shachar Shemesh]

Hi all,

As you may remember, I have shut down Lingnu's operation almost
completely, and am now an employee at a company called LiveU. The good
news is that we have open positions (yes, plural) for high quality Linux
developers. At this point in time the focus is on experienced people,
and the company has the funds to give fitting compensation.

For those who don't know the company, it produces products for TV
reporters to broadcast live by transferring the video over the cellular
network. The next generation product, announced but not yet released, is
a smaller form factor designed to be used also by smaller broadcasters,
such as direct to web streaming bloggers. The company's web site is at
http://liveu.tv/.

The work environment:

  * Scrum programing. See
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scrum_%28development%29 for more
    details. It is a sub-methodology of Agile. Experience with Scrum is
    not a requirement, but willingness to work within the Scrum rules is.
  * The development is done in python and C++, with some work in HTML 5
    and Javascript. The Scrum methodology discourages assigning specific
    responsibilities to specific people, instead focusing on one pair
    solving an entire problem, top to bottom. The result is that every
    person on the team may end up touching any area. As such, experience
    in as many of those technologies is a definite advantage. With that
    in mind, I was hired with zero experience in Python, and only
    passing experience in HTML and Javascript. If you are experienced in
    OOP and are a rapid learner, that's really all we're looking for.
  * And, it goes without saying, the development environment, as well as
    the development platform, are both Linux.
  * Personal time is respected. There is a policy of not asking people
    to take work home with them.
  * The company is very successful, for a startup. It has major TV
    stations as clients in just about all continents, including all of
    the major TV stations in America. It has a few competitors, but is
    the market leader in this field. This means that financially, this
    is a stable work place to work for. With turbulent times not
    completely behind us, this can be an important factor.

If you think you are qualified, and are interested, feel free to send me
your CV. You can either send to this email address, or the same email
under the liveu domain. If you cannot figure out what that means, you
are probably not qualified... :-)

Just so it's clear, this ad is for a full time employee position, not
for a contractor/outsource position.
